Skyros, an authentic Aegean island with eager, polite residents who win the visitor from the moment of arrival. Chora of Skyros is built amphitheatrically on a high cliff and is 11 km from the port of Linaria. At the end of the cliff stands the imposing Castle built in Byzantine times to protect the island from pirates.

Walking through the narrow alleys of Chora, you will be tempted to peek at the interior decoration of the traditional Doge's houses. They are distinguished by their inventive layout where the living room, kitchen, bedroom and storage room fit into a small cube-shaped space.

Many small beaches with clear waters offer some for the socialites, others for nudists and others for lonely nature lovers.
